Hands-on experience

THE MASTER PROGRAMME INCLUDES A 4½-WEEK FIELD TRIP TO INDIA

To get valuable hands on experience and put the theories into practice, the Master of International Health students are spending over a month at the end of their first semester in Vellore in southern India.

Here they get a chance to explore innovative methods for addressing a wide range of global health issues. They also follow health care workers from CMC Vellore and learn how primary health care is practised in the nearby rural districts.

Flexibility

FLEXIBLE SPRING SEMESTER

Even though the Master of International Health is a one year full-time study programme it has some flexibility built into its structure.

The first four months - the core module - has to be taken in one go, but the following eight months - the advanced module and thesis module - can be spread out over several years, making it possible for you to alternate between studying and working, and thereby keeping in close connection with your professional job.

The only rule is that you have to finish the programme within three years.
